I was seen by Dr Brian Capogna at Orthopedic Associates in 2025 for a complex medial meniscus tear…read more Given I am a mom of young children, under 40 years old, and have had no previous knee problems, a partial arthroscopic meniscectomy was recommended. Despite following every instruction, within months post-op I began to feel pain. I went back to him to ask for another MRI 5 months post-op to see if there was a reason for my discomfort. He very quickly brushed off my concerns and said that I am simply older and should accept I will have aches and pains. I did not like his demeanor or his quick response to my concerns. I decided to get a second opinion at a different practice who, after another MRI, determined there was not only another tear but that it appeared now even deeper into the meniscus. I've now had 2 meniscus surgeries from 2 different surgeons within 8 months. It was determined by the most recent surgeon that Dr Capogna left a flap of the meniscus exposed, which, no matter how much rest and PT, the meniscus could not "unfurl" or ease itself. Another surgery would need to be done. I understand we live in a highly litigious area and he could potentially see my request as me blaming him for a botched job. I was not asking for an MRI to put Dr Capogna at fault. I simply wanted an explanation for my situation. In fact, had he listened to me and agreed to help me get to the bottom of this and order an MRI, I might have even scheduled him again as the surgeon. I understand there are many factors involved when agreeing to surgery and complications are possible. What I do not understand, however, is a doctor who can dismiss their patient's pain so nonchalantly.

Have you ever had one of those Humpy-Dumpty days where things fall apart, including your bones?…read more Well, I had one. Between the compound/open fracture and the other broken bones, my morning started off tragically wrong. Thankfully, Dr. Tam is more skilled than all the king's horses and all the king's men because he was able to put me back together again! Dr. Tam impressed me with his straight-forward "this is what I would do if it were me" approach. I like options, but he isn't afraid to tell you what the best option is. Before surgery, he put his hand on my shoulder and let told me, "You'll be alright." He assured me he would do his best. His tone and the warmth of a human touch comforted me. I was very impressed by his skill. This isn't his first rodeo and he is very familiar with the ins and outs of surgery. I'm pretty sure he gave me a Borg implant, take a look at the picture and tell me what you think! I hope I don't start saying, "Resistance is futile!" Nothing but praise for Dr. Tam and I highly recommend him. If you need his services then you're in a bad situation. Trust him and he will get you to recovery as fast as possible.

had a terrible experience with Dr. Rubin. I was in and out of his office in about 3 minutes. He…read moredidn't try to help me and refused to even listen to what I had to say or look at the images and reports that I brought with me. He told me that if my previous pain management doctor couldn't help me then why would I think that he could help me. That shows lack of confidence in his abilities. He spoke to me rudely. He speaks in a monotone voice like other reviewers wrote and he did not show any care or concern for me as a patient. It was extremely difficult for me to get to his office as I am in chronic pain and had to lie in the back seat of a taxi (which was expensive) to get to his office. So it was extremely disappointing to be treated like that by a pain management doctor who I thought would at least try to help me. I am currently seeing a different pain management doctor who is doing everything he can to help me. What a different experience from Dr. Rubin.

When the office submitted to the insurance they forgot to include the x-ray, so the MRI was denied. It has been 2 months now, it is impossible to get in touch with anyone from their office.

He calls 2x a week and receives no help, no one knows what's going on and they won't even transfer him to talk to the doctor. We do NOT recommend this office. If you are in pain and need help, find another doctor's office who will respect their patients and follow through to help mitigate a mistake they made.
